9. Disconnect the electrical harness at the control housing, speed sensor, and the two chassis connectors. Note:
Position the harness out of the way.

10. Remove the cab engine cover.
11. Remove the transmission-to-engine mounting bolts along the bottom and sides of the clutch housing. Note: Do
not remove the top four transmission-to-engine mounting bolts at this time.
12. Position the transmission jack and secure the transmission to it.
13. Remove the bolts securing the battery cables to the brackets on the top of the clutch housing.
14. Remove the top four transmission-to-engine mounting bolts.
15. Carefully pull the transmission back until the input shaft clears the pressure plate. Lower the transmission and
pull it out from under the vehicle. Note: While lowering the transmission, periodically check around it to assure
nothing is caught or hung up on it such as wiring or air hoses.
16. Remove the service plug located on top of the clutch valve to ensure that no air remains in the system. Note:
The Clutch Valve Unit contains air under high pressure. Do not remove the drain plug entirely because doing so
may allow the plug to quickly and forcefully become a projectile. Leave the drain plug slightly cracked to allow
air pressure to be released. Failure to do so may result in serious personal injury.
